Centrifugal discharge conveys usually have a spacing between buckets that is 2 to 3 times the bucket projection, though the spacing can be greater for free-flowing products. The head pulley diameter is the distance from the top dead centre to the bottom of the bucket. The belt speed is determined by the bucket spacing times the number of buckets per second.

SELECT BUCKET SIZE AND SPACING SELECT BUCKET SIZE AND SPACING The size and number of buckets is determined from the 5,000 kg/hr throughput. required throughput using an iteration process.

DETERMINE BELT SPEED DETERMINE BELT SPEED 100 buckets per minute/60 sec per minute = 1.7 bucket/sec. The bucket spacing times the number of buckets per 1.7 bucket/sec x 0.3 m = 0.5 m/sec. This is too low and second determines the required belt speed. The speed for will prove to be insufficient for a clearance throw into the centrifugal bucket elevators is usually in the range of 1 m/s discharge chute. The bucket spacing will need to be to 2 m/s to insure the product throws into the chute at the increased and the calculation repeated. head pulley. CALCULATE HEAD PULLEY DIAMETER CALCULATE HEAD PULLEY DIAMETER A simplifying assumption is made that the throw v2 (0.5m) 2 commences at the top of the head pulley. At this point the r (radius ) = = = 25mm g 9.8m / sec 2 centrifugal force and gravity force are balanced. cos β The head pulley diameter is 50 mm. This size, though Centrifugal force = m ⋅ v 2 ⋅ where accurately calculated, is not practical. It is far too small. r The buckets cannot deform sufficiently to go around the m = mass in kg pulley without over-stressing both buckets and belt. v = belt speed in m/s = angle from top dead centre The solution is to increase the bucket spacing or to use r = pulley radius in m smaller buckets. This then requires a proportionate speed Gravity force = m ⋅ g where increase to maintain the throughput. The greater velocity g = gravity constant 9.8 m/sec2. needs a larger head pulley revolving at the same RPM.
